Help me help you

Guise, I'm a mod.

Don't fall out of your chairs.

However, I feel that I may not initially operate on the same level as some of the pre-existing mods (namely Different/Chewy).
Let's not **** here. If I'm doing something wrong, tell me about it. I won't bite (or warn/ban you), and it'll make me better.

And no, this isn't aimed at the staff, it's aimed at you members. I'm moderating you, not them.

Thanks.

Re: Help me help you

I don't know why but I feel unstable with some of the new moderators (I'm all-right with Bee).

Anyway, what happened to the Minecraft group that you made?
I joined, made a skin for the group but haven't heard since.

Perhaps you should tell us why so we could not do some of the things you fear.
That's more towards newer posters, since you "don't know why".

That'd be best left to a PM, 79 warnings issued.
Nobody's active on biomecraft except a3 and Zoey, and even if they were, we wouldn't have anything to do.

Re: Help me help you

Hmmm. I nearly did fall out of my chair, but I was sitting precariously close to the edge anyway, so that's nothing new.
Here's a few general things I'd like to see from ya'll mods: (lol I just said ya'll)

1, actually read the reports and respond accordingly and don't trust that the reporter is always right, like don't disable a sig without checking it's size just because someone said it was too big. Actually make sure it is.
2, kindly move locked threads to graveyard, they be ugly.
3, don't let the power get to you.
4, stay active & communicate.
5, give me your password.

This so much. I hate when I see locked threads cluttering up the list when we have a graveyard >.<
I always get tempted to report them, but it'd be a waste.

I don't feel the need to verbalize any moderation unless it's issuing a warning. I'll mostly be lurking in the shadows.

Please do. I made quite the mistake day 1 and the one or two threads I locked I failed to move to the graveyard. In any case, you won't get warned for abuse (because it's not abuse), so please do report such threads.

Re: Help me help you

Sorry, I disagree with you on that m'dear.

Reports should be something urgent that needs attention.

Besides, sometimes it is good to leave a locked thread in the forum it was in because it leads by example. If someone comes to post about how nub Bee is, but sees there are already 4 locked threads about the topic, they will be less likely to post about it.

If you don't like a locked thread on the front page, simply bump up a thread from page two by responding to it. If you have nothing to say on any of the recent threads, then they are as useless as locked threads, so there is little difference.

Re: Help me help you

But the point of the topic graveyard is to, you know, contain the locked topics.

I understand about the reports part, but locked topics definitely need to be in the topic graveyard.

Re: Help me help you

Hmmmm.... without a warning or a ban...

You're a terrible mod for not making me a mod. Jk. I'll probably ruin the forums due to the lack of my forumify powers.
I don't like this sudden boost in activity since moderiseation.

I like looking at the locked threads for epic lulz. But if it's locked but not in the graveyard I won't read it and get my daily lol.

No, I just don't do anything outside of Forum DIscussion, Off-Topic, or Creative.

Why not? Activity from us?

Personally, it gave me a reason to come back to the forums.

Re: Help me help you

JAD, thank you for being the most active of the new mods, you're setting an example. I would just like to see you guys post more on threads that aren't mod-related.

sometimes it is good to leave a locked thread in the forum it was in because it leads by example. If someone comes to post about how nub Bee is, but sees there are already 4 locked threads about the topic, they will be less likely to post about it.

Yep.

Reports should be something urgent that needs attention.

Nope. Anything that is borderline offensive or against the rules ought to be reported, in my opinion, not just when some nub starts a forum raid with inappropriate content. That's (mostly) exaggerating, but you get my point. If you don't feel like sifting through the reports, then leave.

I don't feel the need to verbalize any moderation unless it's issuing a warning. I'll mostly be lurking in the shadows.

Bad Supa, BAD! Moderators need to be active on the entire forum! All four of you guys need to be active, not just check reports.

By the way, I hope your new position means no more visits from pedo-smiley. >.>

I don't think I congratulated you guys yet, so congratulations JAD, Bee, Tako, and Supa! You guys were everybody's first (four) choice(s).

Clearly you have not moderated a forum that has more than a few hundred people =P

Oh, please. Don't pretend like we get any reports ever.
I joke.

Well I'm not a rule-breaker myself but iit scares me seeing so many green names now... Makes me not want to post anything because I'm afraid of getting banned.

Make sure to follow the rules and you'll be fine. If you weren't getting banned before, you won't be getting banned now.
